Cool FM & Downtown Radio Cash Call Terms and Conditions

Please read these terms and conditions carefully as they may change from month to month

These Competition terms and conditions should be read together with, and are in addition to, Bauer Media Group: Competition General Terms & Conditions at: https://www.bauerlegal.co.uk/competition-general-terms-and-conditions (the “General Terms”).

Together these specific competition terms and conditions and the General Terms shall be referred to as the “Terms”. Where there is a conflict between these terms and the General Terms, these terms shall prevail.

ITEM 1: COMPETITION NAME

Cool FM & Downtown Radio’s Cash Call running from the Start Date to the End Date as set out below (the “Competition”).

ITEM 2: PROMOTER

Bauer Radio Limited, registered office: Media House Peterborough Business Park, Lynch Wood, Peterborough, United Kingdom, PE2 6EA and registered under company number 01394141 (the “Promoter”)

This is a Bauer Radio Competition, running across the following radio stations:

Cool FM, Cool Old Skool, Downtown Radio, Downtown Country

ITEM 3: WEBSITE

The website shall be www.coolfm.co.uk, www.downtown.co.uk, or www.downtowncountry.co.uk (the “Website”)

ITEM 4: COMPETITION START DATE, END DATE AND ENTRY PERIODS

Start Date: Tuesday 19 April 2022 at 6:00am

End Date: Friday 29 April 2022 at 5:00pm

The first Entry Period will open on Tuesday 19 April 2022 at 6:00am and close on Friday 22 April 2022 at 5:00pm.

Following this first Entry Period, entries to the Competition will open and close as follows (individually an “Entry Period”, together the “Entry Periods”):

Entry Period 2: opens at 5:10pm on Friday 22 April, closes at 5:00pm on Friday 29 April

Any entries received before the Start Date or after the End Date (as stated above) will be invalid but you may still be charged.

We reserve the right to broadcast the Competition at any time throughout each day during the broadcast schedule.

Please note that the Competition Entry Period as specified in these Competition terms and conditions are final and are not impacted by the time of broadcast of announcements advertising how to enter the Competition, which may in some circumstances be delayed.

ITEM 5: COMPETITION DETAILS

After the start of each Entry Period, the prize amount (the “Prize”) will be announced on air. The Prize will be the winning answer and will also be the cash amount that entrants are trying to win.

We reserve the right to announce the Prize at any time during the Entry Period. We may also advertise the Prize on the respective Station’s Website, social media or via an SMS marketing message or via any other medium at our absolute discretion.

After the Entry Period has closed, one entrant from all of the valid entries will be selected by automated random draw (the “Draw”).

In order to play the Competition, the entrant must answer their phone within 5 rings. The 5 rings will be judged according to the Station audio recording (for the avoidance of doubt the sound of a “ring ring” shall count as one ring, not two). If they are not in a position to play for any reason then they will be unable to play the Competition, and no other entrant will be called.

The entrant selected may be required to talk to the presenter / programming team, and the call may be recorded and played on-air (assuming there is no breach of these terms and conditions).

The entrant who is randomly selected to play will be asked to name the Prize relevant to that Entry Period of the Competition. For the avoidance of doubt, we will only accept this directly from the entrant and any attempts by a third party to name the Prize will not be accepted.

If the entrant gives the correct Prize they will win. We may ask an entrant to repeat or confirm their answer.

The entrant will not win the Prize should they:

• fail to answer the phone at all; or

• fail to answer the phone within five rings (according to the station’s audio); or

• give the incorrect Prize; or

• fail to say anything at all; or

• be disconnected for any reason beyond our control

Where there is any doubt in relation to whether or not an entrant has given the correct Prize or the Prize should be awarded, we reserve the right to defer decision making to an off-air adjudicator to check the audio recording with reference to these terms and conditions.

Where there has been a winner, a new Prize will be announced on-air and the pool of entries will be reset for the next Entry Period. Entrants will need to enter again to be eligible to win. All previous entries will not be valid for future Draws.

Where there has not been a winner, there will be a rollover and we reserve the right to announce a new Prize for the next Draw. The Prize will not be lower than the Prize for the previous Draw. All entries from the completed Draw, and any previous Draws, where no winner was declared, will automatically be eligible for the next Draw. Entrants do not need to enter again in order to be eligible but are able to do so if they would like to increase their chances.

We reserve the right to guarantee a winner for a Draw. This will be clearly communicated on air throughout the Entry Period of that Draw. Where a winner is guaranteed, if the first entrant chosen to play is not declared the winner, another entrant will be drawn at random and asked to play. This process will continue until a winner is declared.

ITEM 6: ROUTES OF ENTRY AND COSTS

Entrants can enter the Competition by sending an SMS message starting with the keyword CASH to 63103. If the message does not start with the valid Keyword(s), or is not sent to the valid number, it will not be entered. Entrants will receive an automated SMS response to their SMS message confirming their entry. Entrants can also enter online below.

Entrants are responsible for all costs associated with entering this Competition. Texts cost £2.00 (from the UK) + standard network rate. Entrants must have permission from the bill payer before entering the Competition. Online entry is free.

All entrants must enter on their own behalf and may not enter on behalf of anyone else. If we later become aware that the person who played the competition was not the entrant themselves, we will disqualify this entrant and no prize will be payable to any persons involved.

Bauer Media are not responsible for any network or technical issues an entrant may experience, such as latency of the mobile phone network, which may delay or prevent their participation or cause them to lose the Competition if on-air.

Entrants who are randomly selected will be contacted by the phone number provided with their entry. This may be live on air or off-air. Due to programming schedules, this may not be broadcast on all participating radio stations.

All callers are randomly selected in the same way and any off-air recording will only ever take place after the entries have closed. The name, hometown, photo and any video or audio recording of the winner may also be posted on the Promoter’s Website and / or social media platforms.

By entering the Competition, the entrant is automatically consenting to being called and having their name and location announced on-air.

Entrants are only able to win a single prize throughout the duration of this Competition. Also, if an entrant has won £500 or more in any Bauer Media Competition over the past 6 months they are not eligible to win.

ITEM 9: PRIZE DETAILS

The Prize will always be a cash amount that will be delivered to a winner paid in cash, by bank transfer or by cheque.

Delivery or payment of the Prize is subject to the winner providing personal identification and / or proof of address and to internal compliance checks. The Prize is non-transferable and cannot be exchanged. Payment of the Prize may take up to 28 days from the point at which the Promoter receives the correct details.

Where, it emerges after the Prize has been awarded that the entrant was in breach of these terms and conditions, we reserve the right to withdraw the Prize from that winner and they will not be entitled to any further reward or remuneration. We reserve the right to exclude individuals who breach our terms and conditions from entering our competitions.

ITEM 10: DATA PROTECTION

By entering the Competition, entrants are automatically consenting to receiving marketing communications from the Promoter via SMS text message. Entrants can opt out of this at any time by texting: STOP to 63103. This will be charged at 1 standard network rate message. If entrants do not wish to receive any marketing communications, they will need to do this after each time they re-enter the Competition. Entrants personal data will (regardless of whether they opt-out) always be used to process their entry.
